I've always liked/wanted a bronze watch so I got a San Martin 62 Mas homage. The dial was lovely but I started thinking what if it had a Seiko face, and how unusually cool it would look as Seiko as far as I know don't do bronze watches.
As the San Martin has a Seiko movement it wasn't hard to find a replacement Seiko dial. The swapping out process was pretty easy, with only making sure the hands were fitted and set up properly being a bit tricky. I also painted the chapter ring black, as the minute markers didn't look right to me. After putting on a very good quality leather strap the mod was completed, and I'm extremely happy with the end result.
